Thinking about starting a business? Great, have you got a Plan? If you haven't written your plan yet, your business is still in the fantasy stage. Though many successful businesses have been started without the benefit of a business plan it can be an essential factor in the birth and growth of your business. Anybody beginning or extending a venture that will consume significant resources of money, energy or time, and that is expected to return a profit should take the time to draft some kind of plan.
A business plan is what lenders such as banks use in deciding to lend you money and investors use in evaluating to invest money in your business. A business plan is also essential to any business NOT seeking capital; it provides an important way to compare actual results for a period against a predetermined plan. If a variance exists, corrective action can be taken. In other words a business plan is an essential written guide to starting and running your business successfully.
A business plan is the main company document that your employees -- and you -- use to make decisions about what you should do first, second, or not at all. A good business plan provides you a map to follow and boots your confidence.
